The fundraising began after Gov. Bobby Jindal
cut the program's $257,000 budget by almost 40 percent with a line-item
veto. Without that money, officials involved with CODOFIL have warned
that the program could be in jeopardy. The fundraiser's goal is to
collect 100,000 $1 donations to fill that gap. More information on the
